| == Tasks ==
| |
|
| |
| * (DONE) SELinux policy might need updating
| |
| * (DONE) HAL changes for IEEE 1284 IDs. Needs to store COMMANDSET field, and needs to probe parallel ports for printers.
| |
| * (DONE) new HAL method for dealing with a printer being plugged in
| |
| * eggcups dialog changes
| |
| * create foomatic printer XML entries for all PPDs. Currently foomatic ships with lots of PPDs, but several of them have no XML entries to hold the autodetection strings.
| |
| * better SMB browser
| |
| * need to fix 'hal' backend to provide IEEE 1284 Device ID
| |

| == CUPS 1.2 ==
| |
|
| |
| We will be shipping CUPS 1.2 as an update to Fedora Core 5 as soon as is feasible. There are [[Printing/CupsChanges| some changes to be aware]] of for the admin side.
| |
|
| |
| == Printing Remotely ==
| |
|
| |
| Remote printers need to use an IPP URL in the form of '''<nowiki>http://hostname:631/printers/queue</nowiki>''' for Fedora cups servers. You should be able to see the printer configuration page in a standard web browser from the remote system. Hence, printer dialog boxes may require that the "remote queue" be '''printers/queuename''', instead of just "queuename".
